    Clear explination of difference between Democrat and Republican
    I'm reminded of the time that Catherine - a little girl in our
    Neighborhood - told me that she wanted to be President one day.

    Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there with us - and I
    Asked Catherine - "If you were President what would be the first thing you
    would do?" Catherine replied - "I would give houses to all the homeless
    people."

    "Wow - what a worthy goal you have there Catherine." I told her (while both
    Parents beamed), "but, you don't have to wait until you're President to do
    that. You can come over to my house and clean up all the dog poop in the
    back yard and I will pay you $5 dollars. Then we can go over to the grocery
    store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $5 dollars
    to use for a new house.

    "Catherine (who was about 4) thought that over for a second, and then
    Replied, "Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and clean up the dog poop
    himself, and you can pay him the $5 dollars."

    Welcome to the Republican Party Catherine

    :) :)'Scuse the typo in the heading.

    I thought of the dog poop needing to be picked up in my back yard and of the young couple who weeded, raked and swept for me two weeks ago because the guy had been laid off. I paid them thirty dollars and hour. They did a great job.

    I had read that story years ago and it is politically cute.
